- Summary
- Three hardbound autograph albums, each measuring 15 x 10.5 cm., each bearing the word AUTOGRAPHS embossed on its cover. Albums contain mostly the autographs of actors, and also a small number of jazz musicians and singers, as well as schoolmates and family members of Sarah Epstein. Most of the actors whose autographs appear were movie performers, including Joan Crawford, James Cagney, Henry Fonda, Bob Hope, Gary Cooper, Judy Garland, Errol Flynn, and others, but several were known primarily as stage performers, including Katharine Cornell and George M. Cohan. Musicians whose autographs appear include Kay Kyser, Bunny Berrigan and Rudy Vallee.
